Judge for The Desarios

The Desarios started during the boy’s sophomore year in high school playing at Talent Shows and local run down venues. Though they have had a rotating rhythm section, the frontline of Cory Jasin on lead vocals/rhythm guitar and Alston Causey on lead guitar/vocals has stayed consistent throughout the band’s history. As they began to get older (not much older, the boys currently have an average age of 19) their music and playing ability became consistently better with each homemade EP they put out. The Desarios just finished recording their third self-released EP with producer Doug Boehm. Boehm is best known for his work with bands like The Vines and Guided By Voices, but he has also engineered tracks for Fall Out Boy, Katy Perry, and Miley Cyrus. The “On The Run” EP finds the boys tackling the upbeat pop/rock and roll sound that they were meant to make. The call and response chorus of “Little Hot Mess” is instantly memorable to anyone who has ever seen the boys play live before and the hook-laden rock n’ roll story of a girl named “Juliet” will win you over after hearing the first guitar riff. Their local fan base (lovingly called “The Desariettes”) has been growing with each show and the Atlanta area is really getting into this rock n’ roll band that plays pop songs. This is one of those rare bands that have no intention of staying a “local band” very long. The boys are on the run and ready to be heard.
